SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. We believe we may now state, that there is no longer any doubt of the return of Lord Durham. We have seen letters from Canada which speak positively of his intention to leave Quebec (to proceed through the United States) on the 20th of October. In all probability he will be in London, as he himself announced, in January. An attempt has, 'we see, been made to justify the base and factious en deavours of the Tories to destroy Lord Durham's autho rity, on the ground that the French Canadians being incor rigibly aliens to English rule, his Lordship's efforts to con ciliate them could never have availed, and that the business of coercion can be best performed by a soldier. But are we to keep the French Canadians in subjection by bayo nets ? It may be necessary to resort to coercion when dis affection has broken out into actual rebellion ; but, when re bellion has been put down, it becomes proper to inquire in what manner rebellion may afterwards be prevented by other means than the presence of an overwhelming military force. No sane man would tlfink of maintaining that if Canada can only be kept in subjection by a large military force, it would be worth our while to continue the connection on such expensive terms. If, then, means must be resorted to for rendering the Canadas secure without keeping an overwhelming force constantly in the country, the sooner they are resorted to the better. It was, there fore, wise in Ministers to follow up the suppression of the insurrection by the immediate appointment of a Governor- General invested with large powers to inquire on the spot into the causes of the diseased state of Canada, and to de vise means for remedying the evils. Lord Durham has been interrupted in his endeavours to justify the expecta tions of the country from his appointment by a most uncon stitutional and most wicked and factious attempt on the part of the Tories to render his efforts nugatory. If the French Canadians have, under these cir cumstances, felt emboldened to resolve on ano ther insurrection, this does not prove that under other circumstances they would not have remained submissive. If they do rebel a second time, the crimes of that second rebellion, the distress of the British set tlers from the unsettled state of the colonies, and the delay in the work which shall by judicious arrangements prevent future rebellions, must all be placed to the account of the Tories. Still the labours of Lord Durham will not have been unproductive of advantage to his country. He has acquired mach useful information with respect to Canadian affairs only to be acquired on the spot ; and in his place in the House of Lords he will be able to do great good, setting Parliament right with regard to the cause of what has taken place in the two provinces. Our system has been radically vicious from the beginning in several essen tial respects. Under an infatuation without example we have positively nourished disaffection in Canada. We have, as it were, taken pains to cultivate the means of rebellion. What could possibly result from the keeping up the separate nationality of the French, separate language, separate laws and uses, but a feeling of alienation, which, sooner or later, must have broken out in an attempt to throw off the alien yoke ? The Tory Administrations of the country which suffered the continuance of such a state of things thereby proved themselves as blind as bats. If absolute want of foresight be the best qualification for governing empires, our Tory statesmen have proved themselves peculiarly qualified. They never appear to have looked an inch be fore their noses. In Ireland, for example, the brilliant idea occurred to them of retaining the penal laws against the Catholics, and yet giving political power to the Catholics through the possession of the Electoral Suffrage. In Canada they in like manner gave to every cause of aliena tion the most ample scope for development, as if it had been wished that the attempt at independence should have the greatest possible chance of success. It is fortunate that the attempt has been made at a time when the powerful arm of Britain has been at liberty. Our present Ministers, however, will, we trust, display more wisdom than the Tory Ministries which preceded them, and proceed man fully to a radical cure of the evils. If a second re bellion be the fruit of the conduct of the Lords, when that rebellion has been put down, as it must be, the task must be entered on without delay of making Lower Canada a British possession. Ministers will have to repeat what in the case of Lord Durham's appointment was so happily commenced. Lord Durham's successor will have one advant age not possessed by his Lordship. The Ellenboroughs and the Lyndhursts (we put Lord Brougham out of the question, as he is only powerful with the Tories when mis chief is in the wind) will not be rendered wiser, but they will not be able to play their game of faction a %second time with the same success. A number of the Tory Lords were merely stupid, and followed their leaders as a flock of sheep follows the foremost ; but they no doubt feel morti fied at the mischief they have unwittingly done. We may, therefore, predict that if the French Canadians should once more attempt to make puppets of the Tory Lords, they will not find them so pliant as heretofore. They will be more ready another time to listen to the Standard (the Stan dard is sometimes a safe counsellor—the Times never), which tells us yesterday of " the painful necessity under which it found itself of condemning the proceedings of the House of Lords—condemning those proceedings, not as they might affect Lord Durham, but as they must give a fatal character of weakness to all future government." There was not a single sentence of common sense uttered by one of the Tories in the House of Lords (the Duke of Wellington, strange to say, is hardly an exception) during all the discussions of last session with respect to Canada. All the cavillings about the choice made by Lord Durham of Special Councillors betrayed the very extreme of imbe cility. Every person beyond the age of a schoolboy had known, we should have thought, that in the difficult and embarrassing sitution in which Lord Durham found him self the greater the responsibility thrown on himself the better. It has often been said that a general never calls a council of war but when he wants an excuse for retreat ing. Had Lord Durham surrounded himself with a strong Council of Cananians, he might have found an excuse for doing anything or doing nothing. As it was he generously divested himself of that excuse, and yet the wiseacres of the House of Lords could not see this. It was well observed in a sensible pamphlet, " The Canadian Crisis," published some months ago, that " it is absolutely requisite that • discretionary powers, as nearly unlimited as possible, should be delegated to the authority chosen by the Crown. It has been said that such great power ought to be invested in a Board or in a Commission, composed of several persons, rather than be entrusted to any individual. But whoever has well con sidered or witnessed the effects of giving in grave matters, particularly when promptitude and energy are required, power to a Board, even consisting of but few persons, and of dividin - 4, and thus almost virtually destroying, the great responsibility necessarily attached to such power, will hardly defend such a course. All such Boards or Com missions have in them the inherent defects of the worst of all possible modes of Government—that of a bureaucracy. The individual chosen must, then, be invested with great power, and proportionate responsibility." The author of the pamphlet in question, who states, he says, the result of personal observation in the Colonies and the United States, observes— " The present state of things is Canada is the work of many years. The germ of the actual discontent existed from the very moment of the Canadas becoming an English posses. sion. In almost every conquest ma d e by Great Britain, where there has Iren a capitulation or formal cession, one art:oe has been invariably admitted with a fatal facility, viz., that the conquered inhabitants shall continue to be governed by their own laws and preserve their own language. There are other minor points injudiciously allowed to pass. But this is the true teterrima cause, the real origin of the difficulties and unpopularity of the English in their foreign possessions." .4 What is the result of these concessions? That laws the most defective, and that havebee bee n abolished in every part of Europe, and in all its dep endencies, asylum in British territories. I n th e n find their last ref u ge and West Indies, in 3lauri. tius, &c. &c., similar admissions have enta iled upon us the vriance, in spirit ad ministration and practice of laws totally at a and in letter, to our own jurisprudence, andindeed to that of all civilised countries of the present day. .. The remnants of old Spanish, Dutch, French, and other j aws have, by our conscientious quixotism , b een preserved in English p ossessions. And while the de fective French laws and previously) and institutions (o f Louis XIV. an d XV. ,stime of hersubject to pos sessions, assremain et coustulm es de Paris. And our lawyers hav e to study the coutum e de Normandie, and to plead in a for e' a gn s language. te d e f e ctive, The effects of t he p reservation of th e old w are not so fatal as t hose which result from h , however con tinued use o f the language of the conquered colony. By strengthening nat ional prejudices and enmities, it makes the line of demarcation between the governors and the governed more distinct, and causes an additional difficulty in producing that gradual union and amalgamation which are so desirable." He then asks if the Americans adopte thcontrary, e languag he ob e and laws of their acquired states. On th serves that " neither in respect to Louisiana nor Florida, nor in the German part of Pennsylvania, is it thought ne eissary to make any exception—the English language i s that of the Constitution, the general government, and the l imperceptibl ylaws a sense of community of inte rest and homogeneo feeling, notwithstanding the great extent of the union, in which the interests of the inhabitants are infinitely more various and conflicting than are those of the C anad ians." The na tionality of the French C.nadians must, then, in the first pl , ce be destroyed, and a system established without loss of time by which all hope of possible success from insur- Tection shall be destroyed. Let us open to English settlers the means of acquiring property, and we shall soon see ourselves relieved from the necessity of g overning Canada Guards.--Mo rnin g by the Horse Guards. C hronicle. The statement that her Majesty had written an auto grlysh letter, requesting Lord Durham to remain in Canada, after a tbrtnight's unchecked circulation in this country subsequent- to its importation from Quebec, re- THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1838. ceived yesterday an authorised official contradiction through the columns of the _Morning Chronicle. It seems fair to I infer that the very wise and ably and high-minded i.orsoas who mustbe our Contemporary's authorities on this occa sion, attach great importance to the contradiction above mentioned, not only from the circumstance of our Con temporary having given the position of leader of leaders to the three laconic lines of authority, beginning " We are authorised to contradict," and ending " there was no foundation whatever for this report ;' but from the afore said very discreet and exalted persons venturing now to encounter the ridicule and the incredulity with which a contradiction so tardy is sure to be received by a nation of loyal men, every one of whom has been anxiously watching for it for at least 12 days. This official announcement will be so unfortunate, we fear, as to establish in the opinion of the greater part of the world the very fact it is intended to im pugn. Had there been no Royal letter to Lord Durham, people will naturally say, the report of the Canada Papers would have at once been contradicted by the Ministerial Journals, instead of serving them as it has done during a fortnight for a foundation to their hope that his Lordship might be induced to stay away. Had there been no such Royal letter, people will again say, and with equal reason, Ministers, having missed the proper moment of contradic tion, would have permitted the false report to work its own way, according to the nature of such things, to neglect and oblivion, instead of making it the subject of a deeply pondered official denial of twelve days' gestation, and which has manifestly been kept ready to be smothered or produced as might best suit the tenour of subsequent a'- vices from Canada. It would be equally unconstitutional and indecent that the personal intervention of the Sove reign should become an instrument of daily use in the hands of such an Administration as the present, or of any other Administration, to arrest the conse quences of their daily perfidies, poltrconeries, or follies, even in those cases in which the Royal interposition could not fail of immediate success. But the indignity cast upon the Crown would be more foul and odious, and the viola tion of constitutional principle in the same degree more vio ent and monstrous in the case of a weak and wicked Minister exercising the ascendancy of li!s position over a youthful and a female Sovereign, to induce her to inter pose her personal authority or influence to avert the con sequences of his misconduct, in a case where the success of so high an intervention might be doubtful or improbable, and where the Sovereign might then only discover how far she had been betrayed to stoop, by learning the painful fact that she had stooped in vain. It is by supposing Lord Mel bourne to be in the predicament just described, and by that supposition only, that we can account at once for the delay which has taken place in contradicting the statement re specting the Royal autograph to Lord Durham, and for the peculiar emphasis with which the unseason able, and, therefore, incredible contradiction is now offered. While any hope was indulged that Lord Durham, notwith standing the perfidious desertion he had experienced on the part of Ministers, and the further perfidies he must natu rally expect from the same quarter, would consent to retain his post on the personal interposition of the Sovereign, Lord Melbourne was not so fully awake, as he has since become, to the debasement of the Royal authority, of which he knew himself the author ; and what is probably of much greater importance in the estimation of the Noble Premier and his colleagues, so strong a publicity had not arisen that an indignant sense of the degradation of the Crown, and the m isapplication and abuse of the per sonal influence of the Sovereign, might be awakened in the mind of their Royal Mistress, whom they knew to be gracious, condescending, and confiding ; but in whom, nevertheless, as a scion of *the House of Bruns wick, they may justly dread to see roused the spirit of her sires. In a word, Ministers have no higher ambi tion than to be successful jugglers, and would use, as their cups and balls, the Queen, the noblest institutions of the country, our colonies, together with the Governors, the British Press, - and the British people. But even in the worthless character of jugglers, their temerity is more con spicuous than their skill, and the wearied and disgusted spectators, and victims of their tricks, will, ere long, hoot them from the stage on which they have already exhibited too long. The character of the present Administration seems to be as well understood in 'Canada as it is in Eng land. In proof of this we refer to one very remarkable article among our selections, from the American papers re ceived yesterday. This article from the Toronto Patriot, embodying another of a character equally remarkable, suggests very sufficient grounds for Lord ; Melbourne's recent anxiety to keep the late Governor-General of Canada out of England by any means, constitutional or unconstitu tional ; at the expense of the dignity of the Crown, or at any other cost or sacrifice whatever ; as well as for his Lordship's present anxiety, now that his original object has become hopeless, to disguise the undue and improper means to which he seems to have resorted for the attainment of the latter. We shall here merely refer our readers to the article in question, adding only the remark that, apparently upon high authority, or such as Lord Melbourne has thought fit to make high authority in Canada, his Lordship is dis tinctly accused of an offence, the imputation of which no gentleman can endure and remain qualified for the society of gentlemen.—Morning Post. GARDENING OPERATIONS FOR THE WEEK. (From tho Gardeners' Gazette.) Everything renders this an excellent season for planting fruit trees. The ground is in excellent order, and the rains which may be expected, and sooner or later must come, will settle them well. Go over all budded Roses ; head in the stocks whew they have grown. Earth up Celery, blaneh Endive, make Asparagus beds, plant out Rhubarb and Seakale. Look to all stove and green-house plants that are free of growth : examine if they want shitting to larger pots or pans. Remove Roses of the garden kind : they will scarcely suffer from removing. Hoe late Turnips, and cleanse all crops from weeds. Dig up Carrots and Parsnips for storing ; if you desire to retain them in the ground, put litter over them to protect them from the frost. Continually examine Auriculas and Carnations in their winter quarters : take off dead leaves, free them from slugs, look well to the drainage, that the water run freely through. It is time your tulips were ready for planting, and your beds ready to receive them. MONMOUTH, THURSDAY EVENING.—On Fri day night last a most daring attaa was made on Troy-house, one of the mansions of the Duke of Beaufort, and now inha bited by Mr. 0. A. Wyatt, agent to his Grace, under the fol lowing circumstances :—About 20 minutes after 11 o'clock, the servants being still up, a person knocked at the kitehin door, which was opened by the cook • it was a man, who de manded some beer. The cook refused to give it, and shut the door. About five minutes afterwards another knock was heard at the scullery-door, which was opened by the cook, when a like request was made and refused. This being com municated to the groom, named Prosser, he felt it his duty to see the man off the premises, and in doing so proceeded to the back of the shrubbery. He there saw three other men with the party who had asked for the beer. The cook followed with a lantern, and Prosser then turned into the road with the man. At this moment she was seized by a man, and on screaming Prosser returned, and the man ran away. Previous to this the man whom Prosser had escorted said, " Then you won't give me any beer ?" to which he (Prosser) replied, " I will not." " Then," rejoined the man, " I will mark you." When Prosser returned to the spot where be had left the other man, he was knocked down by some one, with whom he had a desperate struggle; they both rolled over several times in the fray, and at length the assailant, who ow th a e s under, said " If you will not let me go, I'll stab y l ou to hheisargtr.a"sp,Parnodsscearilendothloinagdldyafuntritaesd,ibsyianthnee.

O n fi nd i ng himself wounde d h e l oose d his hold, and the man made the best of his way off. The groom having been taken into the house, a surgeon (Mr. Broser) was sent for, who shortly arrived and dressed the wounds. That gen tleman states, that had it not been for the belt Prosser wore, the wounds must have proved mortal. Great exertions have been made to discover the parties connected with this atro cious outrage, and two men, named Reynolds and Evans, on Tuesday, were held to bail by Mr. Oakley, the Magistrate, on the charge of being c oncerne d . Prosser is recovering. Mr. Wyatt and his family were at the time in the mansion. TRESPASSING ON RAILWAYS.--A very lengthened investigation (adjourned from last week) took place at Union Hall yesterday, relative to an alleged trespass upon the pre mises of the London and Southampton Railway Company. The facts are briefly these gentleman named Parsons, expecting the arrival of his wife by one of the trains, was in readiness to receive her at the railway terminus, near Vaux hall. In attempting to pass through a particular gate he was stopped by a policeman connected with the establishment, who informed him that there was no ingress, the place in question being reserved exclusively for passengers arriving by the trains. Mr. Parsons went away, and shortly afterwards returned, say ing that he had received permission to pass from one of the clerks, when the policeman again attempted to prevent him, and a scuffle ensued. Ultimately Mr. Parsons was taken to the station-house, and admitted to bail upon the charge now brought forward. The policeman swore that defendant Irid acted with great violence, while the defendant maintained that he hid been ill-used by the policeman. The defendant still p rsisted in asserting that he had obtained leave to pass frt.m one of the clerks, whom he named, but that gentleman posi tively swore that he had given him no such license, and, in fact, that he had told him that none but a written order would be of any use. Mr. Reed, the Company's secretary, stated that the convenience of passengers and the safety of the ci p , r ,e o , p . ; o rt n y . committed to the Company 's e .. requi a r g ed an t is li t at i i t r l . te p p 4 u rs b o l l i l e s mitted to pass through the gate N in docided that the charge • did not wish to press for the stated that the penalty was 10.1., nd not under w s T h at o ise u p l , d rlii,a%ge notds,thrgeant permitted permitted 51. Mr. Reed said the Company penalty, and Mr. Parsons was discharged. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. Greene, lad who stole the cheek in Messrs. ilothschilds' counting-house, was brought up for final examination. Mr. Benjamin Leslie Hanner, clerk to Mr. Leslie, No. 22, East India Chambers, Leadenhall-street, stated that he was intimately acquainted with the prisoner, who called upon him at half-past ten o'clock in the morning of the 2d of October, and requested that he would deliver three letters according to their directions; witness delivered the letters accordingly. The prisoner made no observations to him. The depositions were then read over, and the prisone , was committed for trial. The whole of the large amount of the check with the ex ception of about 601. has been recovered by Messrs. Roths child. Two silver watches were found Upon the prisoner which had been purchased with some of the money, the pro duce of the check. HATTON-GARDEN. Yesterday Henry Bernard and Henry Lucas, smartly- at tired young men, who described themselves as me dical stu dents, were placed at the bar before Mr. BENETT, charged by Fuller, No. 12 E division, with being disorderly. After the case had been stated, the prisoners were locked up ; but subsequently Mr. Kearn, solicitor, of No. 5, and Mr. Heady, surgeon, of No. 38, Red Lion-square' attended and put in the required bail, and the prisoners were liberated. Yesterday an Italian modeller applied to Mr. BENETT for his advice under the following singular circumstances. He stated, in broken English, that he had come to this country for the purpose of modelling the figures of the Duke of Wel_ lington and other eminent characters, and his proficiency in ' the art had realized for him considerable fame in this and his own country. He had gone to great trouble and expense to produce an exact model of his Grace, which was greatly ad mired by those who had seen it, and he expected to derive considerable emolument by the sale of the figures. An Ita lian, named Bianci, had, however, called upon him, and repre sented that he could procure a customer for the figure, who would pay him 101. for it. He had discovered that such was a false representation ; no money being forthcoming, and that Bianci had procured the figure from him for the purpose of t .king copies and disposing of them for his own benefit. He w.shed to know from his Worship how he was to proceed ? Mr. BENETT could not advise with him on the subject. H. inquired applicant's name? Applicant—Mercatti. Air. Mallett, the clerk, said it was a question similar to that of copyright. Mr. BENETT could only say, that as an honest man, Bianci ought to deliver up the figure. Mercatti—Me do not want de figure beck; me only vant your Varship to send de of care to break de figare vid de pokare, dat I may have all de Doeke to myself.—( A laugh.) Mr. BENETT—I cannot do that; the only advice I can give you is to bring your action ; but if you go to law you will spend money which you will never get back again, and pro bably ruin yourself. Mercatti—Ab, 'tis de very hard case dat me shall vork for de odare. _ _ Mr. BENETT suggested eclat Nesbitt, the officer, should call upon Blanca to arrange the matter if possible, and the parties lea the office. MARY LEBONE. A smartly-dressed young sailor, named Thomas Stoker, was brought up in custody, charged with having on the previous night been found in a state of intoxication i❑ Clarence-gar dens, Regent's Park. Mr. RAWLINSON—HOW is it that you can't keep sober and conduct yourself properly?—Defendant (hitching up his trou sers and smacking his thigh)—Lord love your Honour, I'd not been long in London, for, look you, I'd only arrived in the Indiana from Calcutta yesterday morning. I'd a 51. note and a new suit of clothes with me, but I happened to steer to a public-house somewhere in Smithfield, where I fell in with a couple of land-sharks, who made me groggy, and then sheered off with every mag I had, and the toggery too ; but I don't much care for it, as I'm going to sea again very soon, and shan't want the money. He was discharged. PRICES OF CANALS, DOCK STOCKS, svm ANCF enYIPANIES.ftec. gre ave LONDON, TUESDAY, OCT. 30. Slumber Dividend Price of per CANALS. per `Theses. Annum. Paid. Sher, 1,766 7 poi cent.

Thomas Dixon was yesterday placed at the bar, charged with being concerned in the following outrage and robbery : Frances Bazil, a pretty-looking girl, fifteen years of age, servant to Mr. Janes, residing in Theobald's-road, having ob tained a holiday on Monday went to see her relatives at Mile end, and returned from there in an omnibus in the evening. She alighted at about a quarter-past nine, at the corner of Chancery-lane, in Fleet-street, and had walked a few paces when a cab came up. As the vehicle passed her the driver, calling to her, said she looked tired, and as he was going to set a fare down directly he would take her home. Directly afterwards the passengers got out, and complainant, who felt very unwell, got in. The cab was then driven at full speed, and in a few minutes she discovered that she was in Bow street, Covent-garden, where the driver stopped, and the gorse was watered. They were about to start again when the driver called out " Tom," and the prisoner mounted the dickey and the man who had first spoken to her got inside the cab, and sat next her. They next stopped at 'St. Martin's-lane, where the prisoner descended from the driving-place and brought • half a pint of gin to the cab door, and both pressed complainant to drink. She refused, and entreated that they would take her home; but the men importuned her to take a little, and she had just got the glass to her mouth when the men tipped it up, inducing her to swallow more than she intended. The cab-door was then again shut, and prisoner mounted the box, the original driver retaining his seat next to her. They had not proceeded far when her companion pulled the blinds up, and commenced taking indecent liberties with her. She resisted, and screamed violently, calling po lice, and the fellow becoming alarmed, jumped out of the cab, ascended the dickey by the side of the prisoner, and galloped furiously on. Complainant was much alarmed, and on jump ing from the hinder part of the carriage, fell in the road, where she was picked up almost insensible. The police pur sued, but could not overtake the cab. Independent of the ill-usage complainant sustained, she had been robbed of four shillings and a brooch, which was in her pocket at the time she entered the cab. After searching at several of the coach ranks complainant identified the prisoner standing with a cab at the coraer of Agar-street, Strand. Mr. WHITE inquired how it was she had not observed the number of the cab?—Complainant had no opportunity of doing so. Mr. WHITE inquired of the Inspector, whether the g irl was perfectly sober. The Inspector was of opinion that she had been drin kin g a little. Complainant had nothing b u t the glass of g in, which she cculd not avoid drinking. She was very frightened, but cer tainly not under the influence of liquor. Mr. WHITE directed the Inspector to accompany the girl and make some inquiries, and adjourned the case until five o'clock. At the appointed time the parties again came before the Magistrates, and the Inspector stated that the girl's account had been confirmed of a cab setting down in Chancery. lane, aad of the gin being had, but there was nothing yet elicited to strengthen the identity of the accused. Mr. WHITE should remand the prisoner until Friday. Bail was offered for the man's appearance. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. James Siazson, a horse-dealer, who was recently in custody at this office, charged with putting off an unsound horse to a gentleman named Atkins, was yesterday placed at he bar, charged with having attempted to defraud Mr. Prole, of Rus sed- square, of a horse. In defence, prisoner said he had " chopped" with the complaina n t, an d had r ec e iv e d half-a-crown from him to bind the b arga i n . Th ere was a l so a gen tl em an present, a friend of the complainant, from whom he had received sixpence to buy a halter, to lead the new purchase home with. The gentleman referred to said it was true the prisoner bor rowed sixpence of him to purchase a halter, but it was for the animal which he had been entrusted with by Mr. Prole to take to the livery stables. Mr, CONANT wished to know, before he dealt judicially with the case, whether the prisoner chose to state where Mr. Prole's hors e was , an d w h et h er h e wa s willing to give up the animal ? The prisoner said the horse was at a place where he kept horses that he bought, No. 10, Keppel-street mews. As to the proposal to give up the horse, he thought it was a hard case, as he had obtained the animal in the usual manner in which he conducted his business. Mr. CONANT would give the prisoner a short time to de termine upon the course he meant to adopt. The prisoner was removed from the bar. In a short time after this the prisoner sent for the horse, and delivered the animal to Mr. Prole. When this circumstance was announced to the Magistrate, the prisoner was liberated. W OR SHIP- STREET. A very good-looking young woman, named Mary Howe, was placed at the bar on a charge of attempting th e lif e o f a person with whom she had formerly cohabited. The preceding evening, as constable N 121 was passim- , up the Hackney-road, he was called by a gentleman, who gave the prisoner into charge, and who stated that the prisoner had attempted his life with a penknife, which she endeavoured to force into his heart. The gentleman's hand was bleeding pro fusely. He accordingly took her to the station-house. She vras there during the greater part of the night, and com plained of having been basely treated by the person who had given her in charge , un der whose p rotection s he stated she had been. Mr. Conn inquired of her why she went to the house ? The prisoner replied that it was for the purpose of again having a home. The young woman while at the bar fell into a hysterical fit. Her father would take care she should not again eawe any annoyance at the house, and that he'wou Id take her home. Mr. COW), on that promise, discharged her. who, early . in the autumn, acted, CROTCHETS IN THE AlR.—The second title of this very amusing - lath e book is, "An (Un-)Scientific Account of a Ba .. iloon Trip."

SUGAR.—The British Plantation Market has presented a dull appearance during the past week; the large arrivals, toge ther with the great increase in the comparative stocks, have caused buyers to come forward cautiously, and the demand has been very limited both for the scale and refining : on Wednesday the purchases amounted to only 400; on Thursday to 400, and on Friday to 500, making the sales for the three days 1,300 hhds and tierces, at prices 6d under those previously obtained for brown and middling yellow descriptions, but the supply of good and fine yellow sorts being short, they have maintained their former currency. At auction, 126 hhds Barbadoes only partly fonnd buyers at previous rates, middling to good quality went at 58s to 63s 6d; 56 hhds Trinidad sold rather cheaper ; low mid. yellow at 52s to 52s 6d ; greyish, 51s 6d ; 15 hhds 62 barrels other sorts went at 49s 6d for brown Dominica, and 49:! to 49s 6d for Tortola. The - few Sugar houses at work are making only to supply the wants of the home trade. The ar riv ds this year have been 130,260 casks, and in 1837 to de time they were only 109,200 casks. This afternoon the market was very inactive ; the refiners have refrained altogether from purchasing, and the grocers came forward cautiously, taking only sufficient to meet their immediate wants ; the private operations amount to only 200 hhd4 and trs at a decline on the rates of Friday of 6d. At auition 122 hhds Barbadoes brought full prices, aed all were disposed of, fine at 64s to 659, good 62s to 635, good mid 60s 6d to 61s 6d, low midOliop to middling 58s 6d to 60s, with the exception of one lot or a, which was bought in at 57s per cwt. The stock of West India Sugar is now 44 647 hhds. and trs, being 16,664 more than last year. The stock of Mauri tius is now 72,148 bags, which is 18,084 more than last year. The delivery of West India last week was 2,450 hhds and trs, which is 444 less than last year. The delivery of Mau tius was 2,512 bags, being 1,594 less than the corresponding week of last year. The " Gazette" Average Price is now 30s 10d, against 35s loid in 1837, and 42s 6id in 1836. REFINED.—For Grocery' goods rather better prices have been olraired ; standard Lumps have brought 745, rather under 71s 735, and good brown 70s ; double crushed entitled to the old bounty has been sold at 359. Treacle-25s a 25s 6d for common, and 26s 6d a 28s for patent. This afternoon former rates were supported. MAURITIUS.—The private purchases have been only to a limited extent ; but previous rates have been maintained. EAST INDlA.—Bengal has brought full prices. Siam, low white, at 26a to 27s 6d. FOREIGN.-240 chests 130 brls white Pernambuco at 31s a 32s for good quality ; at auction 13 chests 10 brie and 32 begs Brazil of indifferent quality were taken in at the full value, low greyish white at 25s Od a 26s low damps in bags 16s Griper cwt: Yellow Ilavannah, low middling to good have brought 25s 6d a 28s. This afternoon yellow savannah was 1, ss in demand, ry good nearly fine at 28s, good 27s 6d, mid and good mid 26s a 27s pr r cwt TEA.—The extensive public sales, which commenced on the 2d instant, have concluded. The quantity brought fore ard amounted to 244.500 pkr,z, or 16,490,629 lbs, of which 12,912,692 lb: consisted of Black, and 3.577,9371bs of Green, being a larger quantity than was ever before known to be of. fered at one time, and when compared with the July sale it. shows an increase of 3,009,00 lb*, there being an increase on every description, with the exception of Canton Bohea, which was rather less. Previous to the commencement of these sales it 'was generally supposed that prices would rule very moderate, which circumstance drew forth t< large Eaten ance of buyers, including several from the cou n t r y, b ut at the opening of the sale it was evident that importers would not meet the trade at prices which so large a declaration would warrant; the consequence of which was that the bid dings were very languid during the first three days, p r i ces ruling lid to 3d under July rates for Congou, Triankay, Hy so n, Pekoe, and Caper, whilst Gunpowder and Im perial mEiintaineri their former currency, but on the fourth d ay b u y ers fi n ding that th e m er ch an t s wou l d not submit to a greater_ reduction, anti the steeks h e ld by them ting low, and no other sale liking place until January next, caused them to conic forward more freely, and the demand s i,, cu then has been very extensive for Congou, Twankay, Hyson, and Hyson Skin for actual consumption, which inn. proved ld, so that the rates of these descriptions, when compared with these• a last sale, exhibit a fall of only 1d to 11d; speculative demand during the last few days sp:aeg tip for. common Congou ; the prices obtained for Young H) son at the close of the sale 'were equal to those of July ; Glinpow and Imperial have sold briskly at fully previous rat es for the ord sorts, whilst the better kinds have broug ht ra ther higher prices ; the high rates at which Bohe a was taxed, and the competition it met with from common Con gou, checked the demand, and the little sold brough t last sale's rates ; Black Leaf, Orange, and Flowery Pekoeof ord to mid descriptions were taken sparingly, alth ou i :n der offered at moderate rates, the better kinds sold at good prices Campoi, Pouchoag, Souchong, Hung Muey, and Caper met with a dull sale at low prices.
